Free Fishing Weekend in New Mexico is happening this weekend: Saturday, June 6, and Sunday, June 7, 2026. Anyone can fish in any public water across the state without needing a state fishing license or a Habitat Stamp.

State Parks: To encourage participation, New Mexico State Parks that offer fishing and boating are offering free day-use entry all weekend.

Regulations Apply: Even though license requirements are waived, all normal fishing rules—including catch/bag limits, size limits, and water-specific regulations—must be strictly followed.
